The Fogg model says that if you get the motivators right, and if the behaviour is made easier for people to do, and if you trigger it – then the behaviour is more likely to occur. Link

Fogg’s model differs from many of the common models of behaviour change which are economic in their outlook, where humans are reduced to maing decisions purely on a cost-benefit scale. This model looks more at human behaviour with “habits, non-self-interested (social, moral, altruistic) behaviour, social norms, and emotions are all being added into the mix”

We need new ways of looking at – and acting in – the world – a new aesthetics of sustainability so that, when we look at something like an airport we won’t just perceive shapes, or performance, – but also embodied enegy, or embergy.

The Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) is an independent not-for-profit organisation which holds the largest database of corporate climate change information in the world.

The data is obtained from responses to CDP’s annual Information Requests, issued on behalf of institutional investors, purchasing organisations and government bodies. Since its formation in 2000, CDP has become the gold standard for carbon disclosure methodology and process, providing primary climate change data to the global market place.

The Design with Intent Toolkit aims to help designers faced with ‘design for behaviour change’ briefs. The poster* [PDF] features 12 design patterns which recur across design ﬁelds (interaction, products, architecture), and there are also 35 more detailed here on the website. Some of the names will be unfamiliar, but we hope the patterns and examples will be understandable, and inspire your own concepts.
